Great, bring back our troops, reduce military expenses abroad, apply it to defending our own country, further education and better technology.

Our military costs exceed $150bn a year for 800 plus bases in 160 countries overseas, personnel and equipment. Granted, the EU cost isn't all of that number alone, but a large portion. That could provide secondary education for US citizens along with many other important issues facing the country today.

It's nice to support the overall mission of "good will and democracy" but at what cost?
